Just in time for the new school year, billionaire Betsy DeVos wants to make it harder for students who were the victims of fraud to get their debts cancelled. She has got to be the worst Secretary of Education in the modern history of our country. https://t.co/K3MaNwG7hB — PolitiTweet.org

The fossil fuel industry is now the equivalent of the tobacco industry. It creates death and destruction, then spends billions denying its responsibility. Let us be clear: Hurricane Dorian has everything to do with climate change, which is the existential crisis of our time. — PolitiTweet.org

Bipartisan majorities of Congress told Mr. Trump to end this unconstitutional war. Now we must use Congress’s power of the purse to block every nickel of taxpayer money from going to help the Saudi dictatorship as it bombs and starves civilians in Yemen. https://t.co/GjzQ3S905c — PolitiTweet.org

If you were born in 1973, the median wage went from $17 to $19 an hour over your lifetime. That’s it. Two bucks in 45 years. The top 1%'s annual income tripled: $480K to $1.45 million. That's why we need a political revolution. To build an economy for all of us—not the 1%. https://t.co/2OOonDDPhV — PolitiTweet.org

Eight million people work two or more jobs just to survive in the world's richest country. Their stories show us an economy of, by, and for the 1%. It's time to stand up, fight back, and build a society where America's working class can live in dignity. https://t.co/CpU7nwTwTB — PolitiTweet.org

This Labor Day, I stand with my House colleagues. Mitch McConnell: You do not have the right to deprive the American people of a debate to give millions of workers a raise. Bring the Raise The Wage Act to the floor for a vote. https://t.co/xtZPD6mIOp — PolitiTweet.org

U.S. bombs, logistical support, and intelligence for the Saudi dictatorship's airstrikes make us complicit in this nightmare. Congress has declared this war unconstitutional. We must now stand up to Trump and defund all U.S. involvement in these horrors. https://t.co/590lTcBtku — PolitiTweet.org

Even the part of Trump’s tax scam supposedly for low-income neighborhoods is a massive tax avoidance scheme for the ultra-rich. President Trump has many critics. But as a con artist, he is a talent of the highest caliber. https://t.co/lIc2IBk2Zj — PolitiTweet.org

Average cost of a year of college: $50,000 Median family income: $61,000 We let middle-class parents drown in debt trying to ensure a middle-class future for their kids. That is obscene. We must cancel student debt and make public colleges tuition-free. https://t.co/CUoQ0WexYg — PolitiTweet.org

It is unconscionable that this man was given a lifetime prison sentence and kept behind bars for 36 years—for stealing $50 at the age of 22. We have a racist criminal justice system that must be fundamentally transformed. https://t.co/KxqRipGcQM — PolitiTweet.org

How crazy is it that there was no in-state tuition for all students in California, until the 1970s? College was free. Not crazy at all. Don't let anyone tell you that we cannot tax Wall Street to fund tuition-free college and the cancellation of student debt. — PolitiTweet.org

Strong unions are the reason why America once led the world in wages in benefits. No wonder they're so popular, despite decades of right-wing attacks. We must rebuild the trade union movement in this country. https://t.co/XYt8B9qo2F — PolitiTweet.org

It is crazy that we are the only country that lets drug companies charge anything they want—even $6 million—and raise the price tomorrow. Taxpayers give Big Pharma patent monopolies, tax breaks and research money. But Medicare isn't allowed to negotiate fair prices. Shameful. — PolitiTweet.org

The Amazon is being destroyed. So Trump opens America's largest rainforest, Tongass National Forest, to logging and mining. Methane emissions surge worldwide. Trump's EPA will make them grow faster. The president and his billionaire friends are a threat to our entire planet. — PolitiTweet.org

What does it mean when the function of the health care system—in the richest country in the history of the world—is to make billions for insurance and drug companies? 18 percent of Americans with diabetes are rationing the medications they need to live. https://t.co/zyDjSiA3FP — PolitiTweet.org

On Trump's watch, 3,000 Americans died after Hurricane María. A new storm approaches and 33,000 Puerto Ricans still live under blue tarps. Trump's response? Divert $155 million from FEMA for migrant detention, complain about federal aid, and mock Puerto Rican officials. Insane. https://t.co/wIrsjajzrY — PolitiTweet.org

Debido al fracaso del gobierno federal, 33, 000 techos todavía siguen con toldos azules después del huracán María, que fue hace casi 2 años. El gobierno federal debe proveer todos los recursos, por el tiempo que sea necesario, para preparar a nuestros conciudadanos para lo peor. — PolitiTweet.org
Bernie Sanders @SenSanders
Due to the failure of the federal government, 33,000 roofs still have blue tarps almost two years after Hurricane María. We must commit full resources to prepare our fellow citizens for the worst and stand with them for as long as is necessary to finally help rebuild Puerto Rico. — PolitiTweet.org

Under the so-called "War on Drugs," men on street corners dealing pot were thrown in jail. I want to see a war on the corporate greed that is killing Americans. I want to see top executives held personally liable for actions that led to the deaths of more than 42,000 people. — PolitiTweet.org

Under my legislation, the Opioid Crisis Accountability Act, Johnson & Johnson would be fined $7.8 billion—13 times as much as this penalty, about half of the company's profits, and 10 percent of the total annual cost of the terrible opioid crisis afflicting our country. — PolitiTweet.org

People say climate action is expensive. But the price of inaction is far more costly. Intense heat waves could kill tens of thousands of Americans each year if we don't act. We must move urgently and boldly to transform our energy system. https://t.co/nOx0L3VFNd — PolitiTweet.org

If its CEO @SteveEasterbrk gets paid $85 million over three years, @McDonalds can damn well pay all its workers at least $15 an hour. @McDonaldsCorp market value grew $71 billion while it paid the average cashier a starvation wage of $9 an hour. Shameful. https://t.co/29ZZPhYc6I — PolitiTweet.org

Trump said he wanted to get us out of Middle East conflicts. He lied. When we passed a bill to end U.S. involvement in the Saudi-led war in Yemen, he vetoed it. Congress must now defund all U.S. support for this war. Millions of lives are at stake. https://t.co/jK1hQAuTTC — PolitiTweet.org

Over 40 years, income per person doubled. But half our people live paycheck to paycheck. Why? Because the top 1% captured 45% of new income. And the median hourly wage grew by $2 over 40 years. This is a rigged economy. And the working class needs to come together to fix it. — PolitiTweet.org
